While doing memory hotplug tests under heavy memory pressure we have
noticed too many page allocation failures when allocating vmemmap memmap
backed by huge page

and we do see many of those because essentially every allocation fails
for each memory section. This is an excessive way to tell the user that
there is nothing to really worry about because we do have a fallback
mechanism to use base pages. The only downside might be a performance
degradation due to TLB pressure.
This patch changes vmemmap_alloc_block() to use __GFP_NOWARN and warn
explicitly once on the first allocation failure. This will reduce the
noise in the kernel log considerably, while we still have an indication
that a performance might be impacted.

Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released
are cache hot. The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is
likely that enough pages will be freed in the near future that the
per-cpu lists are going to be recycled and the cache hotness information
is lost. As no one really cares about the hotness of pages being
released to the allocator, just ditch the parameter.
The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold
pages. It should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences
between them. __free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the
refcount reaches zero. free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount
was already zero which is non-obvious from the name. free_unref_page
should be more obvious.
No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The
parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless
parameter copied everywhere.

Without deferred struct page feature (CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT),
flags and other fields in "struct page"es are never changed prior to
first initializing struct pages by going through __init_single_page().
With deferred struct page feature enabled there is a case where we set
some fields prior to initializing:
mem_init() {
register_page_bootmem_info();
free_all_bootmem();
...
}
When register_page_bootmem_info() is called only non-deferred struct
pages are initialized. But, this function goes through some reserved
pages which might be part of the deferred, and thus are not yet
initialized.
mem_init
register_page_bootmem_info
register_page_bootmem_info_node
get_page_bootmem
.. setting fields here ..
such as: page->freelist = (void *)type;
free_all_bootmem()
free_low_memory_core_early()
for_each_reserved_mem_region()
reserve_bootmem_region()
init_reserved_page() <- Only if this is deferred reserved page
__init_single_pfn()
__init_single_page()
memset(0) <-- Loose the set fields here
We end up with similar issue as in the previous patch, where currently
we do not observe problem as memory is zeroed. But, if flag asserts are
changed we can start hitting issues.
Also, because in this patch series we will stop zeroing struct page
memory during allocation, we must make sure that struct pages are
properly initialized prior to using them.
The deferred-reserved pages are initialized in free_all_bootmem().
Therefore, the fix is to switch the above calls.

The m32r Kconfig provides both CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN
configuration options. As they are user-selectable and independent,
this allows invalid configurations:
- All m32r defconfigs build a big endian kernel, but CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is
not set, causing compiler warnings like:
include/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:7:2: warning: #warning inconsistent configuration, needs CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN [-Wcpp]
#warning inconsistent configuration, needs CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
^
- Since commit 5bdfca6435 ("m32r: define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN"),
building an allmodconfig or allyesconfig enables both
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN.
While this did get rid of the warning above, both options are
obviously mutually exclusive.
Fix this by making only CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN configurable by the user, as
before, and by making sure exactly one of CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and
CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN is always enabled.

For the out-of-tree build, scripts/Makefile.build creates output
directories, but this operation is not efficient.
scripts/Makefile.lib calculates obj-dirs as follows:
obj-dirs := $(dir $(multi-objs) $(obj-y))
Please notice $(sort ...) is not used here. Usually the result is
as many "./" as objects here.
For a lot of duplicated paths, the following command is invoked.
_dummy := $(foreach d,$(obj-dirs), $(shell [ -d $(d) ] || mkdir -p $(d)))
Then, the costly shell command is run over and over again.
I see many points for optimization:
[1] Use $(sort ...) to cut down duplicated paths before passing them
to system call
[2] Use single $(shell ...) instead of repeating it with $(foreach ...)
This will reduce forking.
[3] We can calculate obj-dirs more simply. Most of objects are already
accumulated in $(targets). So, $(dir $(targets)) is fine and more
comprehensive.
I also removed ugly code in arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile. This is now
really unnecessary.

"The big highlight is support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
which required extensive ABI work to ensure we don't break existing
applications by blowing away their signal stack with the rather large
new vector context (<= 2 kbit per vector register). There's further
work to be done optimising things like exception return, but the ABI
is solid now.
Much of the line count comes from some new PMU drivers we have, but
they're pretty self-contained and I suspect we'll have more of them in
future.
Plenty of acronym soup here:
- initial support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
- improved handling for SError interrupts (required to handle RAS
events)
- enable GCC support for 128-bit integer types
- remove kernel text addresses from backtraces and register dumps

Pull RISC-V architecture support from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This contains the core RISC-V Linux port, which has been through nine
rounds of review on various mailing lists. The port is not complete:
there's some cleanup patches moving through the review process, a
whole bunch of drivers that need some work, and a lot of feature
additions that will be needed.
The patches contained in this tag have been through nine rounds of
review on the various mailing lists. I have some outstanding cleanup
patches, but since there's been so much review on these patches I
thought it would be best to submit them as-is and then submit explicit
cleanup patches so everyone can review them. This first patch set is
big enough that it's a bit of a pain to constantly rewrite, and it's
caused a few headaches with various contributors.
The port is definately a work in progress. While what's there builds
and boots with 4.14, it's a bit hard to actually see anything happen
because there are no device drivers yet. I maintain a staging branch
that contains all the device drivers and cleanup that actually works,
but those patches won't all be ready for a while. I'd like to get what
we currently have into your tree so everyone can start working from a
single base -- of particular importance is allowing the glibc
upstreaming process to proceed so we can sort out any possibly
lingering user-visible ABI problems we might have.
Copied below is the ChangeLog that contains the history of this patch
set:
(v9) As per suggestions on our v8 patch set, I've split the core
architecture code out from our drivers and would like to submit
this patch set to be included into linux-next, with the goal
being to be merged in during the next merge window. This patch
set is based on 4.14-rc2, but if it's better to have it based on
something else then I can change it around.
This patch set contains just the core arch code for RISC-V, so
while it builds an nominally boots, you can't print or take an
interrupt so it's not that useful. If you're looking to actually
boot a system it would probably be better to use the full patch
set listed below.
We've collected a handful of tags from reviewers, and the
remainder of the patch set only got minimal feedback last time.
Here's what changed:
- We now use the device tree to initialize the timer driver so
it's less tighly coupled with the arch port.
- I cleaned up the defconfigs -- there's actually now just one,
and it's empty. For now I think we're OK with what the kernel
sets as defaults, but I anticipate we'll begin to expand this
as people start to use the port more.
- The VDSO symbols version is sane.
- We WFI while spinning in the boot loop.
- A handful of comments have been added.
While there are still a handful of FIXMEs in this patch set,
we've started to get enough interest from various users and
contributors that maintaining an out of tree patch set is
starting to become a big burden. Hopefully the patches are good
enough to merge now, which will at least get everyone working in
a more reasonable manner as we clean up the remaining issues.
(v8) I know it may not be the ideal time to submit a patch set right
now, as it's the middle of the merge window, but things have
calmed down quite a bit in the last month so I thought it would
be good to get everyone on the same page. There's been a handful
of changes since the last patch set, but most of them are fairly
minor:
- We changed PAGE_OFFSET to allowing mapping more physical
memory on 64-bit systems. This is user configurable, as it
triggers a different code model that generates slightly less
efficient code.
- The device tree binding documentation is back, I'd managed to
lose it at some point.
- We now pass the atomic64 test suite
- The SBI timer driver has been refactored.
(v7) It's been a while since my last patch set, but the changes han
been fairly minimal:
- The PCI cleanup patches have been dropped, we'll do them as a
separate patch set later.
- We've the Kconfig entries from CONFIG_ISA_* to
CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_*, to make grep easier.
- There have been a handful of memory model related tweaks in
I/O land, particularly relating the PCI and the upcoming
platform specification. There are significant comments in the
relevant files. This is still a WIP, but I think we're close
to getting as good as we're going to get until we end up with
some more specifications.
(v6) As it's been only a day since the v5 patch set, the changes are
pretty minimal:
- The patch set is now based on linux-next/master, which I
believe is a better base now that we're getting closer to
upstream.
- EARLY_PRINTK is no longer an option. Since the SBI console is
reasonable, there's no penalty to enabling it (and thus no
benefit to disabling it).
- The mmap syscalls were refactored a bit.
(v5) Things have really started to calm down, so this is fairly
similar to the v4 patch set. The most interesting changes
include:
- We've moved back to a single patch set.
- SMP support has been fixed, I was accidentally running on a
non-SMP configuration. There were various mistakes all over
the tree as a result of this.
- The cmpxchg syscalls have been removed, as they were deemed a
bad idea. As a result, RISC-V Linux systems mandate the A
extension. The corresponding Kconfig entry to enable builds
on non-A systems has been removed.
- A few more atomic fixes: mostly fence changes, but those
resulted in a handful of additional macros that were no
longer necessary.
- riscv_early_sie has been removed.
(v4) There have only been a few changes since the v3 patch set:
- The cmpxchg64 syscall is no longer enabled on 32-bit systems.
It's not possible to provide this on SMP systems, and it's
not necessary as glibc knows not to call it.
- We provide a ELF_HWCAP so users can determine the ISA of the
machine the kernel is running on.
- The multi-line comments are in a better form.
- There were a handful of headers that could be replaced with
the asm-generic versions, and a few unnecessary definitions.
- We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*.
- A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up.
(v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes:
- We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets,
which I've already sent out to the relevant maintainers. I
haven't included those patches in this patch set, but some of
them are necessary to build our port.
- The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being
split per directory it is split per topic. Hopefully this
will make it easier to review the port on the mailing list.
The split is a bit rough, so you probably still want to look
at the patch set as a whole.
- atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now
correct. I've attempted to sanitize the various other memory
model related code as well, and I think it should all be sane
now aside from a handful of FIXMEs commented in the code.
- We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not
be multiplexed. There is also a VDSO entry for compare and
exchange, which allows kernels with the A extension to
execute user code without the A extension reasonably fast.
- Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for
the Q extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few
words to allow extensibility to future ISA extensions like
the eventual V extension for vectors.
- A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into
separate patch sets now so I won't duplicate them here.
(v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes:
- We've split out our drivers into the right places, which
means now there's a lot more patches. I'll be submitting
these patches to various subsystem maintainers and including
them in any future RISC-V patch sets until they've been
merged.
- The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use
the HVC helpers and is now significantly smaller.
- We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big
"fence". There's still some work to do here, specifically:
- We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions.
- The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences.
- Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set.
- We now have thread_info in task_struct. As a result, sscratch
now contains TP instead of SP. This was necessary because
thread_info is no longer on the stack.
- A few shared routines have been added that we use instead of
creating another arch copy"

After commit 890da9cf09 (Revert "x86: do not use cpufreq_quick_get()
for /proc/cpuinfo "cpu MHz"") the "cpu MHz" number in /proc/cpuinfo
on x86 can be either the nominal CPU frequency (which is constant)
or the frequency most recently requested by a scaling governor in
cpufreq, depending on the cpufreq configuration. That is somewhat
inconsistent and is different from what it was before 4.13, so in
order to restore the previous behavior, make it report the current
CPU frequency like the scaling_cur_freq sysfs file in cpufreq.
To that end, modify the /proc/cpuinfo implementation on x86 to use
aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() to snapshot the APERF and MPERF feedback
registers, if available, and use their values to compute the CPU
frequency to be reported as "cpu MHz".
However, do that carefully enough to avoid accumulating delays that
lead to unacceptable access times for /proc/cpuinfo on systems with
many CPUs. Run aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() once on all CPUs
asynchronously at the /proc/cpuinfo open time, add a single delay
upfront (if necessary) at that point and simply compute the current
frequency while running show_cpuinfo() for each individual CPU.
Also, to avoid slowing down /proc/cpuinfo accesses too much, reduce
the default delay between consecutive APERF and MPERF reads to 10 ms,
which should be sufficient to get large enough numbers for the
frequency computation in all cases.

Currently, we're capping the values too low in the F_GETLK64 case. The
fields in that structure are 64-bit values, so we shouldn't need to do
any sort of fixup there.
Make sure we check that assumption at build time in the future however
by ensuring that the sizes we're copying will fit.
With this, we no longer need COMPAT_LOFF_T_MAX either, so remove it.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable mdesc_handle.refcnt is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.

Following patch is based on work done by Nick Alcock on 64-bit vDSO for sparc
in Oracle linux. I have extended it to include support for 32-bit vDSO for sparc
on 64-bit kernel.
vDSO for sparc is based on the X86 implementation. This patch
provides vDSO support for both 64-bit and 32-bit programs on 64-bit kernel.
vDSO will be disabled on 32-bit linux kernel on sparc.
*) vclock_gettime.c contains all the vdso functions. Since data page is mapped
before the vdso code page, the pointer to data page is got by subracting offset
from an address in the vdso code page. The return address stored in
%i7 is used for this purpose.
*) During compilation, both 32-bit and 64-bit vdso images are compiled and are
converted into raw bytes by vdso2c program to be ready for mapping into the
process. 32-bit images are compiled only if CONFIG_COMPAT is enabled. vdso2c
generates two files vdso-image-64.c and vdso-image-32.c which contains the
respective vDSO image in C structure.
*) During vdso initialization, required number of vdso pages are allocated and
raw bytes are copied into the pages.
*) During every exec, these pages are mapped into the process through
arch_setup_additional_pages and the location of mapping is passed on to the
process through aux vector AT_SYSINFO_EHDR which is used by glibc.
*) A new update_vsyscall routine for sparc is added to keep the data page in
vdso updated.
*) As vDSO cannot contain dynamically relocatable references, a new version of
cpu_relax is added for the use of vDSO.
This change also requires a putback to glibc to use vDSO. For testing,
programs planning to try vDSO can be compiled against the generated
vdso(64/32).so in the source.

Recently we added a CPU feature for Power9 DD2.0, to capture the fact
that some workarounds are required only on Power9 DD1 and DD2.0 but
not DD2.1 or later.
Then in commit 9d2f510a66 ("powerpc/64s/idle: avoid POWER9 DD1 and
DD2.0 ERAT workaround on DD2.1") and commit e3646330cf
"powerpc/64s/idle: avoid POWER9 DD1 and DD2.0 PMU workaround on
DD2.1") we changed CPU_FTR_SECTIONs to check for DD1 or DD20, eg:
BEGIN_FTR_SECTION
PPC_INVALIDATE_ERAT
END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(CPU_FTR_POWER9_DD1 | CPU_FTR_POWER9_DD20)
Unfortunately although this reads as "if set DD1 or DD2.0", the or is
a bitwise or and actually generates a mask of both bits. The code that
does the feature patching then checks that the value of the CPU
features masked with that mask are equal to the mask.
So the end result is we're checking for DD1 and DD20 being set, which
never happens. Yes the API is terrible.
Removing the ERAT workaround on DD2.0 results in random SEGVs, the
system tends to boot, but things randomly die including sometimes
dhclient, udev etc.
To fix the problem and hopefully avoid it in future, we remove the
DD2.0 CPU feature and instead add a DD2.1 (or later) feature. This
allows us to easily express that the workarounds are required if DD2.1
is not set.
At some point we will drop the DD1 workarounds entirely and some of
this can be cleaned up.
